Gaelic4Girls

The Gaelic4Girls programme is starting in the  Eire Og grounds on March 26th and is running for 8 weeks. The programme is designed for girls between the ages of 8 and 12 who have not previously signed for a club. All are welcome. Please read the attached flyer for more details or contact Auriol on 087 9833368.

WHAT IS GAELIC4GIRLS?
It is initially an 8 week programme aimed at increasing participation in Ladies Gaelic Football. The programme is focused on fun and participation, allowing girls to get an introduction to Ladies Gaelic Football in a non-competitive environment.  It will be held in Eire Og, Ennis every Wednesday from 5pm – 6pm, starting on 26th March. On completion of the programme, participants are presented with certificates and t-shirts for their participation and are given the opportunity to join the local Ladies Gaelic Football Club. Having completed the programme the girls will then participate in a fun Mini Blitz. The cost for the entire programme is €8 (although additional costs may apply for transport to the Blitz). Please note that players are covered by Public Liability Insurance only. Personal Injuries are not covered. Following the 8 weeks, the girls will be encouraged to register with our Ladies Football club, and those that do will be integrated into the existing teams.

WHAT HAPPENS DURING THE PROGRAMME?
It will be held on a weekly basis, with each session lasting one hour. The girls will be taught the basics of Gaelic Football through FUN Skill Games in a circuit style set-up.
